Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics M-SFP-LX-LC-BO SFP LC Aluminium 20g

The BlueOptics M-SFP-LX-LC-BO is a single-mode fiber optic transceiver module with an SFP host interface and LC duplex connector. Designed for 1000BASE-LX applications, it supports transmission and reception at 1310 nm and provides up to 1.25 Gbps data rate over distances up to 10 km when used with appropriate single-mode fiber. The module features an aluminium housing, is lightweight (approx. 20 g), and follows MSA SFP mechanical and electrical standards for broad compatibility with network switches, routers and storage hardware that accept SFP LX optics.

Advantages

The module combines 1000BASE-LX optical performance with a compact SFP form factor and a durable aluminium casing. It implements industry-standard interfaces and single-mode laser technology to reduce susceptibility to electromagnetic interference and maintain stable optical links. BlueOptics devices are manufactured to MSA specifications and use selected components to offer consistent performance, support for Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) when supported by host equipment, and an expected operational lifetime suitable for long-term network deployments.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP slot of your switch, router or storage device while the host device is powered according to the vendor's instructions. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords with correct polarity to the module's LC connector. Verify link status and speed on the host device and enable DDM/DOM monitoring in the host if diagnostics are required and supported. Handle the module carefully to avoid contamination of the optical interfaces and replace protective caps only when making or breaking fiber connections.

Recommendations

Clean fiber connectors before mating, use appropriate single-mode patch cords and patch panels, and confirm compatibility with the host device firmware to ensure full functionality of DDM/DOM features. Store and install the module in a dry, dust-free environment and follow ESD handling procedures to protect optical and electronic components.
